Name a few celebrities you dislike for NON-POLITICAL REASONS...

[Bicoastal]

Mine include: Robin Williams (for being incredibly unfunny and maudlin in nearly all of his films), all of the Black Eyed Peas (for writing the stupidest songs to hit #1 since the heyday of disco) and Ashton Kutcher (for having absolutely no talent except a knack for the most irritating self-promotion imaginable.)

You?

[Dr. Strange]

1. Jay Leno, for reasons of suckitude.

[frogmarch]

2. Angelica Huston

The only movie I saw of hers that she was good in was The Witches. In all the rest, I thought her acting was terrible - so much so that my suspension of disbelief was suspended the minute she appeared and said something.

She ruined the delightful movie Mr. North. I was flabbergasted that she was cast as the female love interest. She looked old enough to be the mother of "Mr. North," and way too old to be his lover. In the credits I noticed that Huston's brother directed (or produced ?) the film, so for me that explained why she was in it.

[muffin1]

16. Have you seen "Crimes and Misdemeanors"

or "Enemies, a Love Story"? These may change your mind about her...

[Captain Hilts]

30. She was great in Manhattan Murder Mystery also. nt

[Orrex]

55. She was also surprisingly good in The Crossing Guard

which, despite a solid cast, remains a pretty forgettable movie.

[Captain Hilts]

29. She was BORN to play Morticia!

[peekaloo]

37. 'Prizzi's Honor'

She is excellent as the spurned lover of Jack Nicholson's dim hit man.

[SoxFan]

3. Brad Pitt and Angelina Joley

PLEASE GO AWAY!!!

Think about this. How fucked-up do you have to be for Billy Bob Thornton to say "damn, man, that chicks just too godamned weird for me"?

[mitchum]

4. Sarah Jessica Parker, Jay Leno, all contemporary pop music singers...

I also agree with your three offerings
and many many more

[Sanity Claws]

5. John Mayer

I'm sure there are others but he has recently said some really awful things.

[Hissyspit]

8. Plus he writes shitty songs.

"Waiting on the world to change..."

Good grief. :eyes:

[Amerigo Vespucci]

13. I posted the link to his new Playboy interview earlier today...

...sexist, racist, juvenile garbage. He's just a rotten being through and through, and if it's all meant to be some kind of cosmic joke, then all I can say is he's a cosmic douchebag.

[rcrush]

6. Bono. END OF THREAD

[Monk06]

75. ------------- THE END -------------

[Tommy_Carcetti]

7. Howard Stern, Gene Simmons, Donald Trump, and any reality star who became famous....

....without having done anything remotely associated with some sort of talent, no matter how small.

[HopeHoops]

9. George Clooney - the fucker can't talk without bobbing his head around.

He looks like one of those stupid sports figurines.

[CTyankee]

76. It's just his self effacement thing. He's wonderful!

I loved "Up in the Air." He was terrific. I think he's embarrassed by all the adoration he gets, but we fans just can't help it. He's too beautiful and too talented to be in anything BUT awe when you look at him. But if you are a guy, I think I can understand it if you don't like him...

[distantearlywarning]

10. Avril Lavigne.

Every time I see her in an interview or on TV (e.g., when she was a guest judge on AI), she just comes across as SO arrogant and self-absorbed. Ick.

[mvd]

74. I like her music a lot, but I do agree she comes across that way

Katy Perry was much better: honest but funny. On Idol, it's a singing competition, so I can see being like Katy or Simon.

John Mayer is one I dislike (he just seems like an ass), despite his music not being bad.

[Pool Hall Ace]

11. Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton,

or any no-talent "celebutante" who is famous for absolutely nothing (except partying / going to rehab).

And I agree regarding everyone listed so far.

[Kali]

12. all of them

if all they have going for them is the fact that they are celebrities then I probably dislike them on principle.

[Iggo]

14. Angelina Jolie...she looks like she smells.

[flvegan]

15. Every single one of the Kardashians.

[muffin1]

17. Adam Sandler

I find his "work" insufferable. Can't even stand to look at him.

[cyberswede]

39. I concur!

though I do sort of like the Hanukkah song...

[KamaAina]

18. Britney Spears, just on general principles

Suckitude: Carrot Top, Dane Cook, and others too numerous to list here.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

19. A few:

Eminem, for throwing dirt at his mom.

Metallica, for the Napster tantrum.

Every actor in every Disney Channel teen sitcom, for obvious reasons. (Except Billy Ray Cyrus, because that one IS for political reasons!)

Nicolas Cage, for his inability to have any facial expression other than "wounded puppy".

Alain Prost, for running Ayrton Senna off the track and then crying like a baby when Senna responded in kind a year later.

Diego Maradona, for being a human train wreck in 87,324,659 different ways.

[Taverner]

20. Dane Cook for being an asshole and stealing from other comedians

And being not funny to boot!

[WinkyDink]

21. I recently "met" RW outside Letterman's. He was EXTREMELY nice to the fans there! Got an autograph!

[Manifestor_of_Light]

22. Who is RW?

Ron Weasley?

[kwassa]

24. I chatted with Robin Williams a couple of times, and he is very nice.

He used to run at the same high school track that I did near Hollywood in the late afternoon.

I recognized him because he ran like Garp.

[JackBeck]

31. I rode the elevator with him in the building where I work.

He was really nice and quite shy. The elevator operator was going kind of slow, so Robin made a joke about being in a K-hole and started talking like he was in one.

When we reached the lobby, one of the other operators called him Mork and said, "na-nu na-nu". I was so embarrassed for him.

[we can do it]

23. Jim Carey

[femmocrat]

25. Too many to list.

Including most of those already mentioned.

[hippywife]

26. Jason Alexander, Adam Sandler, Jim Carey.

They all get on my nerves.

[Auggie]

27. No talent frauds: Jennifer Aniston, Tom Arnold, Jon Lovitz, Will Farrell...

these come to mind immediately.

[AwakeAtLast]

28. Bill Paxton

His voice drives me insane.

[Iggo]

35. Oh, Game over, man! Game.Over.

[Hepburn]

32. LOATHE Guiliana of Bill and Guiliana....

...what a phony! :puke:

[blue neen]

33. Janice Dickinson.

She's absolutely obnoxious.

[Throd]

34. Julia Roberts. A horse faced no-talent high on the smell of her own shit.

I don't like her.

[Orrex]

54. I've found her entirely unimpressive in every role she's played

Except for her performance in Charlie Wilson's War, where I thought she was quite good.

[Demoiselle]

59. Odd. I thought she was worse than usual in Charlie Wilson's War.

Ah well. Chacun a son mauvais gout. (I took French in highschool.)

[Orrex]

61. Gout is a result of too much rich food

I took 12 weeks of French in 1985 and have forgotten almost all of it.

I can tell you that my pencil is large, which is surprisingly useful in casual conversation.

[Demoiselle]

65. I just tried to attach the smiley for rolf and couldn't do it...

And I'm still rolfing.
Gout, as you know perfectly well, Orrex, means "taste."
And congratulations on your pencil.
(insert appropriate smiley figure here.)

[Demoiselle]

64. Jennifer Jason Leigh.

Plays everything in such a self-conscious, mannered way.
She should get over herself.
(I didn't mean to respond to my own thread in this, by the way. But then, I'm really incompetent at DU technology.)

[wickerwoman]

36. Leonardo DiCaprio

He still looks 14. He will never not look 14. And while I appreciate some people might like the barely legal looking ones, I find him absolutely ridiculous in dramatic roles where he is not playing 14 year olds. And somehow Hollywood has decided that he is not only plausible, but desirable in those roles so he gets the first pick of good scripts and they are completely spoiled by having him in them.

[Demoiselle]

60. Absolute agreement here, wickerwoman, for precisely the same reason. Cheers.

[peekaloo]

38. Gerard Butler and this Bradley Cooper guy make my skin crawl.

:shrug:

[joeybee12]

40. Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson, hammy, over-rated actors

I cannot bear to watch.

[AngryAmish]

41. Roman Polanski

guess why

[jakefrep]

42. Hmmm

Nancy Grace
Perez Hilton
Chris Collinsworth
Jose Canseco
Howard Stern
Ron White
Larry The Cable Guy
Carrot Top
Lars Ulrich

[Alexander]

43. Ben Affleck

He plays a total asshole in every movie he's in.

He may be perfectly nice in real life, I don't know, but I get the impression that he's not that different from his movie roles.

[BurtWorm]

44. David Spade, Tina Brown, Harold Evans, England Dan, John Ford Coley, Loggins, Messina

Ferrante, Teicher, Rowan, Martin... acutally, I'm kidding about those last four. I love those guys. ;-)

[soleft]

45. I used to not like Roseanna Arquette,

But I changed my mind when I saw her documentary on Debra Winger.

Everytime I think of someone else I don't like I realize it's for political reasons.

[bamacrat]

46. Dennis Miller, he's a dick.

Beyonce, her songs suck and she just annoys the hell out of me.

[MissMillie]

47. Joan and Melissa Rivers

I can't take them seriously about anything and really could care less who wears what on what carpet.

[bookworm65t]

48. Greer Garson (of the older celebrity group)

When it comes to old movies, the one person I cannot stand is Greer Garson. I can't stand the sight of her, nor can I take her irritating voice. She totally wrecked the old Pride and Prejudice, how Olivier stood her is a miracle.

As for current celebrities, anyone who builds a shtick based on body functions is a witless moron who deserves to be shamed and ridiculed in their own right.

I know there are many who irritate me, but since I am partially sedated anyway, I can't get too outraged.

[Demoiselle]

63. My father hated her, too, and so do I.

I think it was those sparkly sparkly eyes that did it for me.
We used to call her Greer Gruesome.
I don't think I can come up with another old movie star that I loathe nearly as much
Although tearful little Margaret O'Brien makes me grind my teeth a bit..

[Arugula Latte]

49. Adam Sandler -- not funny

Jay Leno -- not funny, annoying, no-talent, screwed Conan over

Reba McIntyre. I've always wanted to kick her ass, even before I knew her politics. Everything about her is so freaking ANNOYING. I can't stand her dumbass hick accent; it's like nails on a chalkboard. Her music sucks. Her politics suck, too, but I'd dislike her even without that.

[rcrush]

50. Kanye West

[lib_n_proud7650]

51. paris hilton, britney spears, etc

[GoCubsGo]

52. The "Toady Show" cast

Except for Al Roker. I like Al. Can't stand the rest of them. They're so full of themselves. Ann Curry is the most useless of the lot.

[tango-tee]

53. There's a whole collection, starting with the insufferable Angelina Jolie/Brad Pitt combo.

Paris Hilton and her ilk for being absolutely talent-free, unemcumbered by any original thought processes and merely children of rich parents. Victoria Beckham, utterly devoid of any charm or warmth, who looks as though she walks around with a corn cob stuck in her butt 24/7. And all of the Lindsay Lohans/Miley Ciruses (sp?) of the world.

[blue_onyx]

56. Justin Timberlake

His music sucks and he is so full of himself.

[Dulcinea]

57. Tom Cruise. John Mayer. Anyone "famous for being famous."

Tom Cruise sucks. I don't know or care what his politics are. In every movie he plays...Tom Cruise.

I can't stand John Mayer's whiny voice. Who gave this chump a recording contract?

Anyone famous for being famous: Paris Hilton, anyone named Kardashian, Nicole Ritchie (who's so ugly I feel sorry for her. She looks like a space alien.) Who are these wastes of space, and why does anyone care?

And I completely agree about the Black Eyed Peas. Ugh. Dreadful. I don't get Fergie at all. She can't sing & looks completely fake.

If it wasn't for Twitter, Ashton Kutcher would be washing dishes somewhere.

But I love Robin Williams. He has made me laugh for years.

[Skittles]

58. Bill Cosby

I find him to be an insufferable asswipe

[madinmaryland]

62. The so-called rock band Rush. Major Suckitude!

[Sugarcoated]

66. Whitney Houston - phony

Brad Pitt - most rolls I can see him acting, and he mumbles
Sandra Lee - she over emphasizes her L's, drives me bonkers
Rachel Ray - she tries to be natural but isn't, tries to act cute, comes off as an idiot
Jay Leno - not funny
Mylie Cyrus - overacting fool
Tyra Banks - overacting phony fool
Suzanne Malveaux - sucks

. . . tip of the iceberg

[Parche]

67. robin williams rocks!!

number 2 in the alltime list, next to George Carlin

:hi:

[Tom_Foolery]

68. What? Nobody's mentioned Matthew McConaughey?

I loathe him.

[Skittles]

71. OMG don't get me started

I'll grant that he's buff but his face is a train wreck and his acting highly overrated

[GaYellowDawg]

79. THANK you.

McConaughey: "Hi. Ah'm chahmin'. Now look at mah abs."

[Initech]

69. Vince Vaughn - literally plays the exact same character in every movie he's in

Don't get me wrong - I loved Old School and Dodgeball but every movie he's done since just hasn't lived up to the hype for me.

[DutchLiberal]

70. Dr. Phil, for being a conservative, moralistic, preaching annoying old fart...

Wanted to say Roman Polanski at first, but that would be too obvious.

[ChoralScholar]

72. Mary Louise Parker....

I haven't liked her in anything she's ever been in.

And the fact that she mumbles constantly doesn't help.

[bookworm65t]

73. I forgot to post Meredith Vierera, Barbara Walters, and Al Roker

Thw whole damn Today cast is a joke. I avoid them at all costs, but since I wanted to watch the Olympic opening ceremonies, I had to put up with Matt Lauer. But he is not nearly as offensive as the rest of that morning crew. Makes you want to sleep till noon. Vierera started as a journalist and decided that dumbass crap and disrespecting guests is the way to go.

When I was in high school (or near that time), I saw Barbara Walters interview Angela Lansbury, and driving her to tears when BW pushed her about family problems that Ms. Landsbury had at that time. Lost all respect for BW and won't be caught anywhere near her broadcasts.

Al Roker is as phony as it gets. motherfucking bastrarding waste of oxygen.

:puke: :grr:

[Blue-Jay]

77. Ashton Kutcher makes me feel "stabby".

[CTyankee]

78. I would say Sandra Bullock, but I don't know why.

So I feel bad. I don't want to judge her unfairly and not like her because of something I can't even name. Maybe it's just the chemistry is not there. I don't think I could "feel" for her in a movie where she is the protagonist...
